The Another View team was in full-emergency information mode on Thursday. Just before going on-air, Old Dominion University, which is just adjacent to WHRO, issued a campus-wide alert to shelter in place. Scheduled round-table guests could not make it to the station due to Hampton Boulevard being closed. Barbara Hamm Lee began the broadcast with an update on the ODU situation with News Director Mechelle Hankerson. We quickly shifted the in-studio roundtable to a zoom call with Norfolk City Treasurer Daun Hester, Hampton President of the NAACP and political consultant Gaylene Kanoyton, and Clean Comedian Allison Moore. The round table discussed the pending referendum in Virginia that will create new congressional districts, the war in Iran, rising Gas Prices, and more. This program also paid tribute to the late civil rights icon Jesse Jackson. It was a hectic but information laden and reflective hour. You can hear this, and all Another View programs on demand on the show's program page.
